I have just completed a new comparison of data from the OEM tire sizes to the alternate tire sizes available. For the Rocket Roadster, I ride and recommend a rear Michelin Road 6 in 150/70R17 run backwards for the front with the 240/55R16 ExedraMax rear . There are no ABS fault issues with these circumference ratios and handling is MUCH improved! Affects regarding axle heights, circumferences & aspect ratios can be read and seen in the scale drawings. For your convenience, I have also calculated the circumference percentage differences of various tire combinations for determining ABS fault ratios (about 6%). I also added my Existing Tire Choices Data sheet.
